[01:02] SonikkuAmerica: -- Thank You :) === Freejack is now known as Guest95550 === Guest95550 is now known as Freejack_ [02:00] well i finally got kubuntu installed [02:01] Well, that's a good thing. [02:01] What version? [02:01] 12.04 [02:01] 50 dvd's later lol [02:01] 50? Sounds like a daunting task. What happened? [02:01] all because of crappy burner software [02:01] What were you trying to use> [02:01] ? [02:01] fanilly asked someone on hereand they recommended imgburn [02:02] worked first time [02:02] software that was on my windows machine [02:02] If you're using Windows 7, the Windows Disc Image Burner should work and make it bootable. [02:02] is there any easy way to set up the display for a 10 foot user interface [02:03] i had vista [02:03] some software that came with it [02:03] CDBurnerXP works for any version of Windows, but... [02:03] 10 foot UI?! Are you using a big screen or a projector or something? [02:04] big screen and everythign is way too small [02:04] wynn00: Head for System Settings > Display and Monitor. [02:04] mainly want to use this as a htpc but be nice to use it for other apps as well [02:05] It should be in the "Size and Orientation" module. [02:06] onlythingi have figured out to do is knock resolution way down but thats not ideal for movies [02:07] What's the highest res the module lists? [02:07] 1024 768 [02:09] i went to fonts and icons and made them all larger but that seems to be counter productive too [02:09] perhaps i just need to switch back and forth on resolution [02:09] What are you using for projection? VGA, HDMI, DVI, Component maybe? [02:10] svid [02:10] only choice [02:10] other then compoenent [02:11] S-video won't help you if that's the way it's connected. To use bigger res, you'll need at least VGA. [02:11] the higher res i go the smaller everything gets [02:12] so im not sure thats what im after [02:12] Can you measure the screen diagonally for me? (It might be hard if it's 10 feet tall but just humor me) [02:13] its not 10 ft tall [02:13] i was just using that term [02:13] as a guide [02:14] its a 52 in scren [02:15] im new too all of this [02:16] im alright with the 1024 768 resolution if there is a way to make everything bigger like it is when you use a lower res [02:17] kind of in test stages to see if i want to invest in better equip === me is now known as Guest55648 [02:18] Well... it could be a driver issue. What kind of graphics card do you have in the machine you're running it off of? [02:18] its old using mx 420 [02:19] GeForce? [02:19] yes [02:19] Mmmm... I used to have a machine with an MX200. Unfortunately, that card is no longer in use. [02:19] i got the driver it rcommended [02:20] So.... you're still stuck with 1024, and it's probably also a good thing to drop compositing. Or just get a new maching. I don't really know what else to tell ya... sorry. [02:20] 8machine [02:20] *machine [02:20] no problem [02:21] But if you get a new machine, keep the hard drive, unless it's IDE [02:21] (IDE ATA that is) [02:21] i need new everything [02:21] im just testing this all out first too see if i like it [02:22] my first expiernce hooking a pc to a tv and first expeirece with kubuntu [02:23] i have a little expeirnce with bsd but my really knowledge is windows [02:23] just wanted to have mor control [02:23] well thanks anyways [03:02] Whats a program to do desktops video screenshot [03:02] ? === kubuntu is now known as Guest37731 === Freejack is now known as Freejack_ [03:52] I used to have some nice "applets" for KDE3, Question: Does anyone know of any way to install these under KDE4 ? === KJ_agent007 is now known as koTton_kaNdiy [05:02] I don't go about changing email settings.

It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading. === Mamarok is now known as Guest1467 [15:23] hm. I will try asking this here ... I am building my own system from ubuntu's mini.iso, and using the kubuntu-desktop metapackage as a reference. Why is anacron listed as a dependency? [15:26] aPpYe, I think that's a question for the devs [15:27] aPpYe, is it interering with your upgrades? [15:27] interfering [15:28] BluesKaj, I am not sure, as I keep reinstalling the system fresh. I was thinking that if it was required for the upgrades to work, then it would have been pulled in as a dependency by muon. [15:29] but upgrades are the main reason why I am not sure if I should pull it in or not. [15:30] if it's a default dependency then I wouldn't sweat about it [15:32] anacron is supposed to make sure (unlike cron) that events that are missed because the system is turned off are still run asap after the machine is turned on... so I guess the question would be is what mechanism does muon use to actually schedule its updates if I set its frequency to daily? [15:33] it isn't really about sweatign about it, more I am wanting to understand how it works... is there a dev channel where I can ask about this? [15:33] unattended updates ? [15:34] aPpYe, yes , #kubuntu-devel [15:35] i don't bother with muon much [15:36] guess i should tho [15:38] you use dist-upgrade from the console then? Basically, I am wanting to make a skinnier kubuntu for family members, and muon and it's updater seems like it has all the right features... [15:39] aPpYe, yes muon has come a long way , it's almost as good as synaptic for referencing packages [15:40] heh... that's the thing. I hadn't even heard of it until just a few days ago when I heard about the mini.iso === dragon_ is now known as Guest28784 [15:41] hello my little kubuntus! [15:44] unheeding, little kubuntus ? :) [15:44] BluesKaj: you heard me ;) [15:45] I installed the raring release, and it worked better than the beta of Mageia and the stable AND beta versions of openSUSE 12.2/3 [15:45] well, I'm not yours and I'm not little , by any means :) [15:46] I liked opensuse 12.10 , just not a yast fan [15:46] 12.2 rather [15:46] i wanted to like it [15:46] but it couldn't start the x server [15:49] raring has finally gotten over it;s ubiquity HW recognititon problem , I hope ,l I had to install by release upgrade from 12.10 === pjoe_dj is now known as pjoe_afk [16:11] Is it possible to get automatic screen rotation in 12.10 or even 13.04? [16:13] how can I rip an audio cd to MP3s? [16:15] PrincessLuna: Using what method? [16:15] SonikkuAmerica: no idea [16:16] PrincessLuna: I mean, it's done in System Settings > Display and Monitor, but that's about it. You might try setting up a shortcut to rotate the screen. [16:17] SonikkuAmerica: no I was refering to automatic rotation when I turn the screen. [16:18] PrincessLuna: I don't know of anything that does that... [16:19] PrincessLuna: Although... what kind of machine is this? [16:19] SonikkuAmerica: A tablet pc [16:20] PrincessLuna: What brand? [16:20] Its a thinkpad [16:21] PrincessLuna: Check out Magick-Rotation. I have a Fujitsu T4220, but it works with Dell, HP and Lenovo hardware too. [16:22] PrincessLuna: Here's the link: https://launchpad.net/magick-rotation [16:30] hello world :D [16:33] can anyone help me set the archive directory for my Back In Time backup software? http://imagebin.org/247178v [16:33] ovidiu-florin: hello :) [16:34] rosco_y: invalid URL [16:34] :( let me see.... [16:35] let me repost :( sorry about that [16:35] http://imagebin.org/247178 [16:35] weird, they look the same, but that one works for me [16:36] oh, I guess I added a tailing "v" on the first link.... [16:41] Can anyone recommend alternatives for "Back In Time" backup software? === codingtony is now known as tbussier [16:55] rosco_y: two things come to mind...... looks like you are telling the software to save backups in a directory off the root rather than home (or other directory owned by you) and try making the archive directory first before attempting to save the location in the software. just a couple of thoughts.... [16:58] mandoguit: ty, I was trying to backup to a second hard drive, is that the problem? [17:00] actually, my second hd has two partition mounted as: /data, and /archive [17:02] It seems my Wacom tablet doesn't want to "rotate with screen" when I rotate the screen. The screen itself will rotate, leaving my calibration 90 degs off. When I use xsetwacom to fix it, my calibration tool doesn't work! What do I do? [17:03] SonikkuAmerica: I have to open my vidio driver and rotate with that--it would be nice if it were automatic, but I don't think my monitor would support that anyways..... [17:03] rosco_y: shouldn't be (I have never used that particular software before though).... maybe try making a "test" directory in the /archive partition and then use the directory browser in the backup software to load the directory name into the entry field. [17:03] rosco_y: OK... [17:04] rosco_y: What do you mean by "open the video driver"? [17:04] mandoguit: good Idea, I'll give it a try [17:04] rosco_y: Actually rip it open with Kate and manually edit the thing? Sounds dangerous. [17:05] SonikkuAmerica: --eeps, doesn't sound like anything I'd recommend..... [17:05] SonikkuAmerica: I think he means your video driver settings software such a nvidia-settings for example [17:06] rosco_y, mandoguit: Oh. Unfortunately, I don't have config'able settings like that. I have an Intel GMA965 chip. [17:08] SonikkuAmerica: maybe try xrandr then [17:08] OK [17:08] mandoguit: I browsed to my /archive partition, and it ls -la shows this: drwxrwxrwx 3 root root 4096 Feb 16 13:02 backintime [17:09] and when I ls -la /data, I only see the lost+found folder..... [17:09] Looks like I'll have to read the man pages... [17:09] so I don't know [17:09] rosco_y: are you running your backup software as root though.....root owns those directories [17:10] yes, I'm running the software as root [17:10] mandoguit: xrandr didn't work for me. Tried the -o switch. Same problem. [17:10] SonikkuAmerica: install xrandr (if not installed) and then run it via menu. should pop right up. menu's are pretty much self explanatory [17:10] it kind of looks to me now, as if it's actually working, but dolphin is somehow showing the "backintime" directory in the /data mount [17:11] mandoguit: x11-server-utils replaces that package. [17:11] which is confusing.... [17:11] I'll just have to keep an eye on it. [17:11] mandoguit: *x11-xserver-utils [17:12] SonikkuAmerica: thanks will check that out :) [17:12] For one thing, if /data was getting archived to /data, there would be cyclic problems, and I don't see that happening [17:12] thanks mandoguit, that did shed some light on it [17:12] mandoguit: I may have to wait a couple of months anyway before anything will work. [17:13] rosco_y: yw. wish I could suggest something else but nothing comes to immediate mind [17:13] I think you've helped a lot, thank you again :) [17:13] yw :) [17:13] mandoguit: Maybe you were suggesting arandr? [17:14] SonikkuAmerica: yes that is the rascal! sorry for the spelling mistake [17:15] mandoguit: xrandr is the cmd-line util. arandr is the GUI-based one. That's still available. :) [17:15] du shows that the backintime snapshots in the /archive mount, and not in the /data mount. So all is well, if not a little confusing :) [17:15] rosco_y: good to hear :) [17:16] SonikkuAmerica: yes I have it installed here. hopefully it will accomplish what you need. :) [17:18] mandoguit: Perfect, it works, in conjunction with xsetwacom! Now to find a keyboard or writing pad... [17:18] SonikkuAmerica: cool.... :) === claudio is now known as Guest46406 === spawn57 is now known as spawn[dead] [17:19] mandoguit: Works with 13.04 anyway... :) Asking in +1 would be a dead end.

[17:58] rosco_y: research "redirection" basic tutorial http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/linuxcommand.org/lts0060.html you can also run progs in term and then copy paste error message to text file. contents of text file can then be uploaded to such sites as pastebin.com etc [18:02] mandoguit: ty -- that was what I was intending to do -- create a file to share in pastebin....I'm losing confidence in my hard drive that we were looking at earlier. It doesn't seem to be behaving normally [18:02] I'll put together a file for pastebin === kubuntu is now known as JMJ === armiel is now known as Camel` [18:38] Is my hard drive failing or is my Dolphin taking a bad trip? http://imagebin.org/247193 === Freejack is now known as Freejack_ [18:45] rosco_y, I don't see any indication of a failing drive [18:46] BluesKaj: ty, it's confusing to me why the bash and dolphin don't agree on the contents of the /data and the /archive folders [18:46] I'm kind of thinking I should try 12.4, the supported version, what would I be giving up? [18:46] (I installed 12.10) [18:47] I suppose I should go read the "what's new" [18:47] :) that'd give me a clue, I hope ..... [18:48] did 12.4 have the plasma activities?

[21:05] yofel: so, I image I can add .deb files to the CD so they will not get downloaded, right ? [21:06] yeah, might work, but I'm not an expert on debian-installer [21:11] yofel: well... show is ? :) :) [21:13] looks like the fade out is default : [21:13] :\ [21:14] lol [21:14] after reboot... it now does what I want it to do [21:27] hi im trying to do a simple thing: i want to install xchat for kubuntu 12 but it needs the repo apparently. there's no Add / Remove Software icon to allow repo adds [21:29] user1: xchate is available in the repositories.

So I followed the suggestion of !puregnome, which ripped out all of Kubuntu and installed the ubuntu-desktop. However, now the kubuntu-desktop won't install! Apt-get complains about a load of dependent [21:53] & recommended packages that aren't going to be installed. What gives? I thought the kubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-full meta-packages were supposed to get rid of such issues. Any suggestions?

[22:09] Quest: the fuser command will help you find out what's using the partition. [22:10] sda2 sometimes it says its swap. [22:10] but its ntfs [22:12] how do i check ntfs by fsck? [22:13] I odn't know that you can. [23:12] how do I add to my $PATH variable? [23:13] oh, I think I see what I was doing wrong... [23:13] y, I was trying to $PATH=$PATH: new stuff [23:14] needs to be more like PATH=$PATH: etc [23:15] :) all is good now [23:17] One more thing, how can I have the bash shell wait for a Call to a "myscript" to return, before continuing? [23:32] how can i see what version of kubuntu im running [23:36] em: help->about KDE? [23:39] kde4-config --version [23:40] thanks
